I think the sales have not lessened because the insane actions of the left in trying to delegitimize our President and their rejection of Constitutional power because they didn’t get their way. People realize there is something brewing, and not buying guns and ammunition when you have the opportunity is a bad idea, frankly.
Don’t trust them - ever. One day, one day you will have to shoot at them and you’d better hope you have a weapon.
So the apparent surge in numbers of applications to purchase weapons is NOT primarily being fueled by disgruntled Social Justice Warriors who have developed a newfound taste for resorting to firearms (which they claim to despise) for “personal defense”.
Watch for the changes in the demographics of those showing up for firearms training, or the creation of a number of new shooting ranges that appear to cater to a different clientele.
Having firearms is of little use unless you gain and maintain proficiency in their use and sharpen up accuracy.
